NINETY DA YS OF FREEDOM During the summer students and faculty again proved that they can find adventure almost anywhere. Whether on foreign ground or home turf, they found challenges ranging from getting an even tan to conquering a rugged mountain or raging river. On the MUS-in-England program, fifteen boys accompanied a St. Mary ' s coed, two California valley girls, and faculty members Mr. Norman Thompson and Mr. Robert Boelte on the annual foray into England and Paris. Since the purpose of the trip was to educate as well as to entertain, the group members spent much of their time listening to lectures on English history and visiting the House of Parliament, St. Paul ' s Cathedral, the Louvre, and the Eiffel Tower. In addition, they went to Yorkshire, where they studied the locale of the Bronte sisters ' literary works and participated in a five-day individual project designed to accentuate English culture and geography. Standing on the Great Wall, Mr. Daniel contemplates the beautiful Chinese countryside. Probably the most travelled teacher, he has fascinated his students with tales of the Far East, Europe, and the Soviet Union. After their visit to Notre Dame, in Paris, the participants in the MUS-in-England program exhibit various emotions: First Row: Preston Rogers, Jeff Breazeale, Judy Levin, Steve Carpenter. Second Row: Chip Tipton, Lloyd Monger, Jimmy Harwood, Tommy Lee, Margaret Jones, Lauren Bendon, Horace Tipton. Third Row: Bob McEwan, Mark Wright, Brian Levinson, Woody Taylor. Fourth Row: Kevin Powell and Bill Cole. Summer Vacations 21
